If Kerberos V5 authentication is being used, this option allows the local credentials to be forwarded to the remote system, including any credentials that have already been forwarded into the local environment. <p><b>Disables the type of the specified authentication. </b>This option doesn't work on my computer. It _might_ be related to disabling either Kerberos or Berkeley authentication. I will look for more information and I will update this on the next version of GTelnet. <p><b>Attempt automatic login.</b> With this option, it will attempt to log in into the remote server with your current login (username). <p><b>Specifies a user interface similar to rlogin.</b> In this mode, the escape character is set to the tilde (~) character, unless the initial escape character has been specified in the preferences dialog. When in rlogin mode, a line of the form ~. disconnects from the remote host; ~ is the telnet escape character. Similarly, the line ~^Z suspends the telnet session. The line <b>~^]</b> escapes to the normal telnet escape prompt. <p><b>Turns on encryption of the data stream</b> if possible (you can only do this if the remote telnet server also supports encryption of the data stream) <p><b>Sets the initial value of the debug toggle to TRUE</b> (<font color="#FF0000">super user only</font>) <p><b>Sets the IP type-of-service (TOS)</b> option for the telnet connection to the value <i>tos</i>, which can be a numeric TOS value or, on systems that support it, a symbolic TOS name found in the <b>/etc/iptos</b> file. <p><b>Sets the initial telnet escape character to </b>a specified character. If escapechar is omitted, then there will be no escape character. <p><b>Requests telnet to obtain Kerberos tickets for the remote host in realm</b>: _____. The option requests telnet to obtain tickets for the remote host in the specified realm instead of the remote host's realm as determined by <i>krb_realmofhost</i>. <p><b>Trace file</b>. Opens tracefile for recording trace information. <br> <hr WIDTH="100%"> <center><a href="index.html">Home</a></center> </body> </html>
